A-L-T

I don't know death but I have yet to understand being alive I've seen more of one than the other but haven't known either one I am some place in between I am where ice meets fire the moment music hits the air the breath you don't take when your heart beats fast for the one you love the result of a dream that you can't remember on the verge of becoming what has always been and will always be the day that is yet to come I am tomorrow

Life, why you being so crazy why you being so weird with me left field is every direction I'm not looking in when you pull the rug out from under my feet and this glass isn't half empty no, it's full of doubt like a ghost whispering in my ear every time you're not around because I won't find love no, I won't find love and if I can't have love at least I have caffeine life, a cup of coffee without any cream bitter bittersweet I don't know what day it is and I don't really care reality is subjective and life isn't fair so, stop complaining yeah, stop complaining and drink from the cup that you've been given because you won't find love n

if I could just pretend for a little while if I could just pretend I didn't know that today will turn into tomorrow and tomorrow I have to let you go let me get lost in your eyes I need just a little more time before we say our goodbyes tell me once more that you're mine I'll write it all down leave my words in the air something for you to keep when I'm no longer there I'll write it all down leave it at the crossroad so you can take a piece of me when you go you'll take a piece of me when you go let me get lost in your eyes I need just a little more time before we say our goodbyes tell me once more that you're mine I don't

I'm not here to lose what I haven't won but I feel compelled to stay I've come too far just to run before I've said what I came here to say I want love pure like the sand in an hourglass it might break but time wont stop if you blink it'll go by too fast I've hit the bottom but I've never seen the top I've never seen the top my eyes reflect the shadows that have followed us here to a hallway of mirrors neither crystal nor clear revealing words only we understand connecting a thread from my heart to your hand I want love pure like the sand in an hourglass it might break but time wont stop if you blink it'll go by too fas

look at me the way you did the night our souls entwined the memory of a moment when I thought you could be mine part of me still dines on that delusion part of me will go and wish you well but not without asking the powers that be to give me just one chance in hell look at me the way you did engulf my soul in flame we can raise our walls up once again but it will never be the same now that we know what lies behind them there is no denying the facts stepping over lines drawn in sand there will be no turning back do you really think this is a train you can derail do you have that much control can you walk away like it never happened and i

don't sing that song to me it's all I hear anymore don't say so long to me we've never been here before don't tell me I'm dreaming I've been wide awake so long before I was in your arms you were already gone you were already gone and I knew it deep down had no expectations but I couldn't hear the sound of my own beating heart growing faster every day I never stood a chance but I took it anyway now when you look in my eyes I feel like I could break don't tell me I'm dreaming I've been wide awake so long before I was in your arms you were already gone so draw your line in the sand and leave our story untold but if you sla

the ice is thin cracking under your feet a heart of tin when did it start to beat breaking down, breaking through, breaking out it's not over yet but this chapters come to a close it's not over yet time to see where this path goes it's not over yet a hero's song unsung it's not over yet in fact, it's just begun chill in the air storm on the way wind in your hair nothing left to say it's all been said before you don't want to hear it anymore breaking down, breaking through, breaking out it's not over yet but this chapters come to a close it's not over yet time to see where this path goes it's not over yet a hero's song unsung it's not ove

You're not mine to love and though I love you you're not mine to love but how I want to what I'd give just to try you're not mine to love you're not meant to be mine 'cause it's not quite real it's not quite for me to say and it's no big deal don't worry, I wont ask you to stay it's just how I feel and it's getting in the way 'cause it's not quite real it's not quite for me to say you're everything I want and you're everything I said I'd avoid such a complicated boy I know I'm not what you're looking for I don't fit into your world I don't fit anywhere anymore I'm such a complicated girl and some may argue that I'm simply one of a kind it

I've lost myself again here in the sand a storm on the wind blood on my hand I've spent twelve hours eating my words a bundle of broken glass dusting damaged nerves I've spent three days forgetting your name but I will remember when I hear the rain and the stars wont tell me their secrets just me alone with the sky perhaps because there is no one to tell no one to wonder why a torrent on it's way in my bones and in my mind clouds so cold and gray of a memory left behind
